Scotland Weekly Issue #27

Dear members,

Let's start with a summary of the group meeting held last Friday. It was a fruitful one for the management team as we got many constructive and valuable suggestions for remodelling of Scotland and what people would like to see in Scotland.

As a result of the discussion, we have started works on a SL replica of the Royal Mile, Mary's Close and an Armadillo Concert Stage. Highland games and many other areas were also covered and worked out too. Just stay tuned for more updates!



By the way, still enjoying the win over France at the Stade de France? Someone (not going to name the person) had planted a Scotland flag on the SL's Eiffel Tower. The snapshot is on the plasma screen in Nessie's Pub if you wanted to have a look.


RENTAL NEWS

Scotland Weekly Issue #26

Dear members,

As part of improving communication to our group members, we will be adding two new sections, namely "Editorial" & "Letters to the Editor".

If you wish to write a letter to the editor, please send your note card to Randal Kline. Any issues raised would aid us in finding out what people are feeling about the Scotland SIMs and allowing us to address them appropriately.


EDITORIAL
Greetings

I am going to use this new editorial feature to discuss issues that arise on the Scotland SIMs and my position regarding these matters.

The current issue seems to be BANNING PEOPLE IN SCOTLAND.

There is a set of the SCOTLAND SIM POLICIES at the information desk next to the TP point for you to read in detail, but basically anyone who violates either the Second Life TOS Agreement or the SIM’s rules will be banned by me or one of the Scotland’s staffs.

Hopefully, we will have time to give you a warning and ask you to stop the behaviour first before banning. Unfortunately, sometimes things happen very fast and we can't always do that.

As Scotland’s SIMs owner, I do have the rights to decide what type of behaviour I find acceptable on the SIMs regardless of the Mature or GP rating.

For Scotland’s SIMs, I would like to have a nice friendly environment and do not find nudity, vulgarity, weapons, verbal harassments or threats of physical violence acceptable. I do not apologize if this conflicts with the basic nature of some Scots who like to be vulgar and/or violent. I find them to be offensive. So no matter what your country of origin is you will be banned if you violate the rules.

I, as a SIM owner, reserve the right to ban anyone who personally offends me. This may be in regards to Scotland or a personal Second Life issue.

No person is ever banned without a justifiable reason, no matter what they claim.

People seem to think that abusing others verbally through the IM system is alright because it is not in the open chat channel. However, if someone sends me complaints about being abused and is able to send me chat logs or the IM in question for justification, it will be sufficient enough for banning.

We are working on a new ban appeal system on the Scotland’s SIMs similar to the “The Procurator Fiscal” system (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procurator_Fiscal) which exists in Scotland.

If you feel you have been unjustly banned you can send a request for review. However, as landowner, I reserve the right to permanently ban people from my SIMs based on the severity of the offence. I am willing to publish a list of these individuals. All others past and present can summit a review request to the Procurator Fiscal.

Recently people have been claiming to have been banned for no reason or on a whim of my staffs. This is completely untrue and we have documented this by chat logs to the Lindens.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please send me a note card.

I hope you all enjoy your time spent in any of the Scotland’s SIMs.

If you ever see people violating rules or being offensive while you are a guest on the Scotland SIMs, please contact me or one of my staffs immediately.

Lacy217 McLuhan
